Bigger wall for more orchids…..

My “wall” started to be too small so I did increase it by about 2 feet. Re-install the watering system and all my plants took me the day but very happy to see the result.

Trisetella hoeijeri

 I met this orchid long time ago, surfing on the web and she was in my “would love to have one” list for long time. I ordered one at Eucagenera and I picked up this orchid (with some other ones….) at the San Francisco orchid show some month ago. What a pleasure to come back from a travel in Europe and see this orchid blooming.
